Just Absolutely Green with Envy

Some of my milblogger friends got to meet with the President earlier today... YES, of the United States!! (I was sworn to secrecy!!) All I can say is I hope I get on the list for the next time!

Go to Milblogs and follow the links to those blog sites... 'cause there is some stuff that seriously is worth reading. And be sure to check back over the next few days as these bloggers tell you all that they learned in a rather lengthy and forthright conversation with the POTUS.

Greenwith envy is an understatement -- not 'cause I am some fanatic for the President, but I do hold with his views on the importance of Iraq and generally on the War on Terror... waiting to see if any of the milbloggers asked the questions I might have asked and to see what the President responded.

I would not know what to say and I would probably be so nervous that I would forget my own name. So, no, I am not green with envy---I am just so glad military blogs are making it into the oval office. If it were not for blogs and the internet, so many good stories would be lost.

Not only did MilBlogs make it into the Oval office, this was the first time ever a President has met with Bloggers. This was history in the making, and I'm honored to have been a part of it.

Curious to know what questions you might have asked, I'm sure they would have been very good ones. Unfortunately not all of us were able to ask questions, and a hour was not long enough, let's hope next time (and there will be a next time, I'm sure)we can get more time.
